Pope “Greetings from the Dean of the College. Your son/daughter is the proud recepient of a D/F in his/her for the mid-ternn.” PANIC!! “He/She is flunking out. We’re wasting a fortune on his/her education. What to do?!!” MORE PANIC!' ^‘Hello Mom/Dad - You got a what from where? Let me explain. . . Oh, you won't!” MORE PANIC!! * * ♦ That about sums it up from all sides of the issue. Parents immediately panic when they receive a mid-term grade report from the Dean. Often the grade is based on only one or two grades and does not give a fair appraisal of the student’s work. The question is ‘'Is it necessary to send these grades home?” Many times the parents accept the report as the final answer. They fail to realize at times that their son or daughter has only a very few grades in the given course. It takes time to adjust- and not just in the freshman year. Once parents receive the report the pressure is on and many times the students just give up. Wouldn't It be better if the students were the only ones to receive the grades? We are expected to be mature and there fore expected to tell our parents how we are doing. Giving us this added responsibility would save a lot of undue panic at this time of year. Amen.
